Product Insights
Tom Ford's Joey Square Sunglasses, new for 2025, are a vintage-glam square that redefines elegance rather than reissuing an archive piece: the beveled acetate frame with rounded corners reads as a minimalistic hexagonal, with a flat metal T marking the temples. Smaller and closer-fitting than the Icon Square at 51-20-145 mm, the Joey suits medium face widths and can carry single-vision, bifocal, or progressive lenses; its UV400 Category 3 tint is driving-grade but not polarized, and photochromic lenses are limited to the Natural colorway. Made in Italy by Marcolin and traceable to the Longarone factory, the all-acetate front and temples lack separate nose pads, so fit adjustments require an optician's controlled heat. Priced at CAD 495 at Simons, the Joey costs less on Tom Ford's own US site and at authorized dealer Select Eyewear, which matches authorized dealers' prices.
Verified claims
- Design
- Rounded-corner acetate square with beveled thin frame and flat metal T at the temples reads as minimalistic hexagonal.
- Aesthetic
- Brand copy frames the Joey as a 2025 vintage-glam square designed to redefine elegance, not a reissue.
- Relative size
- Joey is the smaller, closer-fitting square in Tom Ford's line than the Icon Square FT1330: 51mm lens width and 145mm temple keep the frame face-skimming, while the Icon Square's 53mm lens is wider.
- Manufacturing
- Made in Italy by Marcolin; the box names the Longarone factory address.
- Craftsmanship
- Acetate front and temples with metal T accents, made in Italy and traceable to Marcolin via box codes
- Care
- Sunscreen, hairspray, or fragrance can cloud the glossy acetate finish; spray them before wearing and let dry
- Nose bridge
- No separate nose pads; the molded bridge keeps the front clean and can be heat-adjusted by an optician
- Current season
- FT1301 Joey is brand new on the market in 2025, not an archival reissue.
- Logo treatment
- Joey's T is a flat metal logo on temples only; the Icon Square FT1330 wears a 3D T on front and temples.
- Size tier
- 51-20-145 mm dimensions put Joey in the compact slot, 2 mm narrower than Icon Square FT1330.
- Material
- Acetate and metal frame: front, temples and nose bridge are acetate, with no separate nose pads.
- Lens
- The 51-20-145 full-rim acetate frame can carry single-vision, bifocal or progressive lenses.
- Face shape
- Square shape adds definition to round, oval and heart-shaped faces.
- Fit
- Molded bridge has no nose pads; fit reshapes only with an optician's calibrated heat.
- Face width
- 51mm lens width fits medium faces for a balanced look; the 20mm bridge keeps the front in proportion instead of drifting wide.
- Tint and protection
- UV400 and Category 3 tint, maximum for driving.
- Polarization
- Lenses are standard tinted, not polarized — they reduce brightness but not reflected glare.
- Photochromic option
- Photochromic lenses are available only in the Natural colorway, not the black frame.
- Adjustability
- Acetate frame can be custom-molded by an optician using controlled heat, not a hair dryer.
- Construction
- Front and temples are both acetate, with a metal T inlay that won't fade from handling.
- Value
- Simons lists the Joey at CAD 495 vs US$370 at Tom Ford's own site and US$250 at authorized dealer Select Eyewear.
- Price match
- Select Eyewear matches other authorized dealers' prices and refunds later price drops during the return window.
- Temple flexibility
- The acetate temples offer moderate flexibility—typical for high-quality acetate—durable and comfortable, but not highly flexible like sport or metal frames.
- Heat exposure
- Leaving the black acetate frame on a car dashboard can permanently warp it in as little as five minutes once cabin temps pass 150°F; never leave it in a parked car.
- Lens cleaning
- Rinse the lenses with lukewarm water before wiping; dry-wiping a dusty lens grinds micro-dust into the coatings, and the included cloth is safe only on a wet, freshly rinsed lens.
- Hinge care
- Remove the Joey with two hands rather than one; one-handed removal stresses the hinge and can progressively misalign the frame.
- Storage
- Store the Joey folded in its rigid velvet case with lenses facing upward; case-less or lens-down storage invites dust, scratches, and bending.
